Theft of Gasoline Blamed for Death of Richard Allen
Parachute Fails Brother o Athletic Director Here as He Leaves Fuelless Plane
INVESTIGATION HELI
West Point, N. Y., Oct. 17.—(UP) A gasoline theft was considered today in an investigation of the death of Richard C. Allen, department of commerce aviation inspector, killed in a parachute leap near here yesterday.
Allen, a native of Independence, Mo,
and brother of Dr. Forrest C. Allen,
director of athletics at the University
of Kansas, was flying from Roosevelt
field, Long Island, to Albany, when
his fuel became exhausted. At that time
he was flying low over a woods near
Round Pond.
Allen flew from Providence, R. L., to Roosevelt field yesterday morning. As he prepared to take off for Albany, he was asked regarding gasoline. He replied that he had plenty, which gave rise to the belief that some of the supply might have been stolen in Providence the previous night.
There was no suitable place for landing and Allen jumped, hoping an air current over the rough terrain would hasten his parachute opening. The distance was too short, however, and Allen crashed into a tree top, his parachute only openly. His plane crashed half a mile away.
Richard C. Allen was one of the six brothers who organized a highly successful and widely known "brother" basketball team. The Allen basketball team was organized in 1941. It met and graduated of the college teams of this section.
Richard Allen began flying during the World War, receiving his preliminary training at Call Field, Wichita Falls, Texas. He formerly was an inspector for the department, stationed at Wichita.

20,000 at Nebraska Game
Ticket Sales Leap Upward
Dr. F, C. Allef, brother of Richard C. Allen, who was killed when his parachute failed to open after he leaped from his airplane, was on his way to Lawrence from Chicago when he read of the accident in the morning newspaper. Richard Allen was in Lawrence Aug. 21 visiting his brother.
Albough it has not been definitely decided, Allen will probably be buried in Kansas City, Mo.
An attendance of 20,000 is expected at the Nebraska-Kansas game because of a big jump in the ticket sale which followed the Iowa State-Kansas game it was announced by the athletic office today.
These stores also have tickets on sale for the Notre Dame-Kansas game.
Popular price tickets for the game will go on sale at the athletic office at noon Saturday, officials reported to the commissioners. Reserved section in the north stadium.

MISSOURI FACULTY MEMBERS INJURED IN AUTO ACCIDEN
Columbia, Mo. Oct. 17—Three members of the University of Missouri faculty and the wife of one of them were injured when a motor car in which they struck ruined six three-story houses on the campus turned over several times. The set turned over several times.

Two years ago, this big game hunter and photographer spoke at the University after making a trip to Africa and Asia.
Clyde Tomebaugh, c36, said today that he is not worried about the fact that Professor Robert H. Baker, head of the department of astronomy at the University of Illinois, in his book "Astronomy for Everybody," attributes the distress of the planet Pluto to a Laplandium of Lowell observatory, Flagstaff, Ariz.
Professor Baker says that someone has undertaken to revise his style and opinions. His connection with the book ended, he stated, with the revised man- script. He did not see the proof, and he asserts that the chapter on Pluto does not resemble his style or general opinion.
romambu has been given credit for detecting the planet by scientific societies. Lampland, however, did much of what was achieved each establishing the position of the planet.

Coach Lindsey Says Players Not in Top Notch Shape
Coach Lindsay also pointed out that the game with Nebraska will bring Kansas up against a team always has its winnings. The Kansas defenses in the Big Six; a team that allows opponents few opportunities to score. The edge in the coming battle must go to Nebraska in view of the fact that Minnesota is sweeper, chalkers against Minnesota last week.
Striving for condition will be one of the biggest items of business in preparing for Nebraska this week, according to Coach Ad Lindsey. The Jayhawkers have not yet reached top-notch condition this fall as was shown in the annuals of the key players in the Annex game last Saturday, Lindsey said.
Eight students who graduated from the department of journalism last year have obtained positions. Six have worked in news agencies, and two have work in other lines.

Jayhawkers Look to Nebraska Game for Next Victory
Kansas Squad Confident of First Triumph Over Cornhuskers in 16 Years
TEAM MORALE IS HIGH
By GERALD PENNEY
Sports Editor of the Kansas
Every Player Does Good Work
The Jayhawker slogan is "Beat Nebraska."
From the time the final gun sounded up at Ames Saturday afternoon, a Kansas team with the finest display of spirit that other great Kansas eleven of 1920 know it is good enough to take the measure of the Cornhuskers—something that hasn't been done since 1916. The Kansas队 that beat Iowa State would have shown in any sort of competition. There was no flicker victory, but there were plenty of good football club meeting one that was nowhere near as good. Kansas clearly out-classed Iown State in every department of the game.
Every Player Does Good Work
If Ames lost to Nebraska and played then he played against Kinnan. Nebraska can be easy for the Jayhawks this year.
Every man on the Kansas squad turned in a fine bit of work for himself against Ames. One cannot name any Jayhawker as a star. The whole team starred in winning the Cyclones game and defeated despite the top-aidness of the score.
On the train leaving Des Moines St- turd night, the seriousness of the Jay-hawkers was marked. There was an absolute lack of frippery—every man on the road said that Kansas would really show interest under its new coach, Adrian Lindsley.
Hopes Rise for Rambler Game
There was even some small talk about really being an actual monarch on "Hurk" Andersson's "suicide" schedule when the Rumbles came to Lawrence,
We would like to mention every man on the Jayhawk squad and really play him up, but the chances are that we would miss someone, which would be one of the starting lineup of the substitutions and make headlines out of all the names.
They really have a football team on Mt. Oread, this year.
NOTES OF THE GAME
Evidently, Iowa didn't take Kansas as much of a threat. The turnout of the game was small, the Ames stadium being only about half filled.
The press box service was good at Ames due to the great work of Messrs. McClure and Crocker who almost made it a national favorite, but they were as man W. a W. Dill does at Kansas.
H. B. Ober and Doctor Esterly were we of the most loyal Jawahara fans t the game. They with Carl Friedre those grims that couldn't com off.
We are certainly gud we went down to the Rock Island *depot* Thursday night to see the team off. If we hadn't we would be ashamed to show our face at the depot, where we were more besides the writer there that should get a few lauers, too.
The day was splendid, the turm in fine shape despite the rain of the morning and when Kansas took the field at 13:30 the Iowa States gave them a big hand.
Kansas wore their red jerseys, and did they look big.
This Dick Gree is some ball player, he never never got started Saturday but he was ever a threat.
